Well, looking at the group title, it does not reveal rec.*.amplifiers,
does it? And you have no credentials to speak of, unless selling to

Its replacement with an 8877 is sitting beside me.

Oh wait a minute, you're one
of the ham radio guys, right?

That certainly explains a lot!

Flash of insight, that.

Must've been a brutal education. Think of the learning grade to climb
Ohm's law.

Yeah...I guess those funny
little numbers and letters you have
by your name might have something to
do with it...hmmmmm....

Speaking of "grade", you write
like you're in the 2nd or 3rd.

Hope they got it right this time.

My dictionary says: "conjugate - Either of a pair of complex numbers
that are mutually related in that their real parts are identical and the
imaginary part of one is the negative of the imaginary part of the
other.

We find maximum power transfer requires equal resistances in source and
load. Also reactance, if any, be tuned out of the circuit. This is a
conjugate match, such that source and load are conjugates by the
dictionary definition.

Many texts go into detail. I like the story of conjugates given in
"Transmission Lines, Antennas, and Wave Guides", If it were at hand, I
would quote from it. Found it. See page 43. The authors are King, Mimno,
and Wing.

That's a beautiful amp, Wes. I'm curious--how did it handle Slick's
1.040807999:1 swr, from his 50+j2 load impedance?

Looks aren't everything.

It couldn't handle even a 1.04:1 and
just blew out!

Now it's being used as a doorstop...

It operated a lot better than "Dr." (not so) Slick does.

He makes a comment that no one here builds amps. I present evidence
to the contrary and this is the best he can do.

What a loser.

I worked about 30 states on two-meters from the depths of AZ using
that amp. The present amp has participated in working all continents
(WAC) on two-meters.

I think Garvin Yee ("Dr. Slick") has WALG (Worked All Los Gatos) and
maybe even WAB (Worked All Berkeley). Does that count?
